Lei Meng walked out of the stall and was about to greet him. He found that Lei's father had a serious face, and there was clearly hidden resentment that was about to burst out between his eyebrows. Lei Meng, who was originally very enthusiastic towards him, felt a coldness in his heart. He said, uncle, who are you looking for?
I'm looking for you. Come out and talk to me. Lei's father said it bluntly.
Lei Meng guessed that things between him and Lei Hui were mixed up, so he simply followed him to the entrance of the vegetable market calmly. Lei's father turned around and said, "Lei Meng, you must be responsible for the good things you have done." My girl has been ruined by you. Lei Meng didn't retort and listened to him continue. Now her mother is taking her to the hospital for an abortion. You have to pay for all the expenses. You can't afford it. Lei's father also warned sternly that if you fail to shoulder this responsibility, you will see him in court.
Uncle, don't be so blunt. We can discuss things easily. Lei Meng said this, but Lei's father didn't listen and turned around angrily and left. Lei Meng acted in a hurry. After all, it was his own fault and he should take responsibility. He felt uneasy before returning to the beef stall and planned to go to the hospital for a checkup, so he gave a pile of unsold beef to a colleague at the neighboring stall and asked him to take care of it or sell it on his behalf. Lei Meng immediately closed the stall and walked towards Leijia Village.
On the way, some acquaintances looked at him strangely. Since the matter had been exposed, he didn't care. He even asked a woman about Lei Hui, and the answer was that Lei Hui had gone to the county hospital to have an abortion. No one else knew which hospital it was. He asked the peacemaker who was pulling weeds in the fields and it became clear that Lei Hui had gone to the County Maternal and Child Health Hospital.
Lei's father had offended the peacemaker, but now she was not making peace with him, but she said to Lei Meng, "Don't be afraid of this, just don't admit it." The peacemaker looked at the livid Lei Meng, who had not lost the handful of barnyard grass in her hand, and she showed an expression of gloating.
At the outpatient department of the County Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Lei's mother took Lei Hui to a doctor for consultation, and asked in a low voice, which department does abortion take place? The doctor took the mother and daughter to a door with the door sign of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and then walked away.
They opened the half-opened door and walked in. There were five or six middle-aged women sitting inside, all looking at Lei Hui with strange eyes, because Lei Hui looked like a middle school student, with a layer of childishness on her face. This is not where she came from. Could it be that she came with the adult next to her, her mother? Others may have guessed this, and the look at Lei Hui lost some surprise, and everything returned to normal.
The female doctor in a white coat who wrote the prescription glanced at Lei Hui and asked, "What are you doing here?" Of course it was difficult for Lei Hui to answer, so her mother answered on her behalf that something was wrong.
Something is waiting. The female doctor finished writing the prescription for the woman in front of her, and then it was the turn of the other waiting woman. According to the order of first come, first served, the mother and daughter have to wait for a while.
At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded outside and stopped suddenly at the door. Lei's mother seemed familiar. She looked up and saw that Lei's father was here. He stuck his head into the door frame, and the women waiting inside looked at him, because this department did not accept male patients. The female doctor raised her head and shouted at him, "What are you doing here?"
Look at my daughter. Lei's father answered directly. The female doctor asked unhappily, which one is your daughter?
Seeing her father coming, Lei Hui's heart pounded, and then she lowered her head and turned towards a wall, as if she was looking for a place to hide, feeling very uncomfortable. But Lei's father pointed and said, it was her. I won't come in, I just want to ask you, how much does it cost for her surgery? The female doctor said that she should prepare thousands of dollars. Lei's father felt extremely cold. He didn't even have that much money with him. Lei's mother was not at ease, so she walked to the door and asked Lei's father, "Do you have that much money?" Father Lei shook his head. Lei Mu said, go get it quickly, we will wait here.
I'm not sure I'll get all the money. After Lei's father finished speaking, he left in frustration.
Lei's mother was still waiting numbly. The female doctor looked at them and said, "Come back after you have enough money!" Lei Hui stood up and walked out of the room, and Lei's mother followed. The air was filled with the smell of medicinal liquid. After walking out of the hospital gate, Lei Hui exhaled into the sky.
Suddenly, a familiar figure flashed in front of her eyes. Before she noticed, someone called her Lei Hui. When she saw it was Lei Meng, and was about to say something, Lei Mu came over, grabbed his chest, and yelled angrily, "Finally I found you, you made Lei Hui look bad, you have to take responsibility——"
Lei Meng was unyielding and said calmly, "I will bear all the responsibilities."
good! Lei's mother let go, widened her eyes and said, now Lei Hui wants to have an abortion and has no money to give to the hospital, what do you think she should do? Lei Meng slapped his bulging chest and asked how much it would cost. Lei's mother said she would pay a thousand yuan first. Lei Meng put his hand into his breast pocket, took out a wallet, took out part of the thick wad of money, counted it, then turned around and patted Lei Hui, who was standing next to her with her head lowered. Lei Hui raised her face and looked at him and He didn't know what to say with the particularly eye-catching money in his hand.
Lei Meng pondered for a moment and asked, "Can I not have an abortion?" I want the baby in your belly.
no! Absolutely not! Lei's mother said that even if my daughter agreed, neither her father nor I would agree. Lei Mu's tone was fierce. When she spoke, the veins on her temples moved and tightened, and her eyes bulged as if they were about to pop out.
Lei Meng looked at Lei Hui and asked, what do you think? Lei Hui did not express her position and remained silent, still lowering her head and looking at her toes. Lei Meng's character was sinister and impatient. He didn't have the patience to wait for Lei Hui's answer. Instead, he handed the counted wad of money to Lei's mother and said, this is 1,000 yuan. Is it enough to have an abortion?
Lei's mother took the money and counted it again. Lei Meng asked if the amount was good? Lei's mother did not answer and took Lei Hui back to the hospital. Walking to the door of the hospital, Lei Hui quietly looked back at Lei Meng's back as he hurried away.
After Lei's father left the hospital, he went to the Civil Division of the County Court and told the president about what happened to the butcher Lei Meng and his daughter Lei Hui. The president knew that he was coming to sue, so he gave him a complaint to fill out and said he had to hand in a complaint first. A prosecution fee of 500 yuan will be paid by the defendant if the case is won, and by the plaintiff if the case fails.
When it came to paying the money, Lei's father was stunned. He had just 500 yuan on him now. If he paid the prosecution fee, he would have no money for the return trip. He felt uneasy and returned the blank indictment to the president, saying that he would fill it out after I thought about it. Afterwards, he walked out of the court, walked through several streets, and started on his way back to the village. Lei's father approached the door of his house. There was an "Iron General" on it, which he had locked when he left.
At this time, the sun was heading west, and the shadows of the houses in the village were quietly tilted. Lei Meng opened the door and waited for a while to see Lei Hui and her mother return. He expected that they had no money and should return home from the hospital. After he had lunch, he sat on a chair by the door and seemed to have just taken a nap. When he woke up, it was already dark, and the mother and daughter had not returned home. There is no way Lei’s mother could stay in the hospital with her daughter because she has no money to have an abortion! Is it possible that they went to find Lei Meng?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Lei's father took action, locked the door, and quietly came to the darkness at the door of Lei Meng's house in the north end of the village. He saw only Lei Meng cooking in the lighted room.
Everyone in the village knows Lei Meng's family background. His father died of tuberculosis when Lei Meng was 7 years old. His mother remarried and never came back. Lei Meng was raised by his uncle. Due to his personality, he could not get along with his uncle's family, so they later lived separately. .
Lei's father, who was standing in the dark and was about to leave, suddenly noticed a person coming into the place. He ducked to the firewood pile by the wall and saw clearly that the person who came was the peacemaker, who had already reached the door of Lei Meng's house.
She high-fived her several times before catching Lei Meng's attention. Lei Meng, who was bending down to chop vegetables, turned around. The peacemaker asked, "Didn't you go to the hospital?" How about Lei Hui's abortion?
I gave 1,000 yuan, otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible. When Lei's father, who was hiding in the dark, heard this, he understood the reason why mother and daughter hadn't returned home yet. If Lei Hui had an abortion, she would have to be hospitalized. Lei's father wanted to go into the city to have a look, but it was getting late and there was no car.
